Four main steps are planned to implement the 2028 i-conspicuity ecosystem:
- Extend the transponder mandate in class E to an e-conspicuity mandate. This will initially rely on Mode-S transponders (with ADS-B Out for new installations) and incorporate new technologies, such as ADS-L, as soon as these have been validated with users and industry.
- Develop an i-conspicuity concept of operations followed by a proof of concept exploring and validation together with stakeholders the different possible use cases and supporting services/technologies
- Promote e-conspicuity technologies to support their introduction into general aviation and to ensure full visibility in class E and G airspaces
- Establish a ground infrastructure for seamless exchange of traffic information, data collection and future capabilities to uplink digital aeronautical data to the cockpit.
